- There on the plains of Moab they camped
along the Jordan from Beth Jeshimoth to Abel Shittim.
- On the plains of Moab by the Jordan across
from Jericho the LORD said to Moses,
- "Speak to the Israelites and say to
them: 'When you cross the Jordan into Canaan,
- drive out all the inhabitants of the land
before you. Destroy all their carved images and their cast idols, and demolish
all their high places.
- Take possession of the land and settle in
it, for I have given you the land to possess.
- Distribute the land by lot, according to
your clans. To a larger group give a larger inheritance, and to a smaller
group a smaller one. Whatever falls to them by lot will be theirs. Distribute
it according to your ancestral tribes.
- "'But if you do not drive out the inhabitants
of the land, those you allow to remain will become barbs in your eyes and
thorns in your sides. They will give you trouble in the land where you will
live.
- And then I will do to you what I plan to
do to them.'"
